Dubai to get dedicated taxi parking spaces in congested areas and rest areas for taxi drivers

Parkin Company PJSC ("Parkin" or the "Company"), Dubai's leading provider of paid public parking facilities and services, has signed a strategic agreement with Dubai Taxi Company PJSC ("Dubai Taxi" or "DTC"), the leading provider of comprehensive mobility solutions, to advance sustainable urban mobility and strengthen support services for taxi operations across the Emirate.

Under the agreement, Parkin will allocate dedicated taxi parking spaces in high-demand and congested areas, particularly near major events and exhibitions, while introducing specific rest areas within parking zones to enhance driver comfort and well-being.

Rapid electric vehicle (EV) chargers will also be deployed at key locations to support the transition to sustainable taxi fleets.

The collaboration extends beyond physical infrastructure. Both companies will share data to identify high-demand charging and parking spots, optimize operational efficiency, and co-develop innovative mobility solutions. The partnership also opens opportunities for joint investments and potential ventures in technology and smart mobility services, reflecting a forward-looking approach to Dubai's transport ecosystem.

Furthermore, the agreement focuses on enhancing customer experience by delivering value-added services that improve convenience for taxi passengers and elevate the reputation of both companies. Dubai Taxi will also integrate Parkin's Business Wallet to streamline parking payments across its fleet.

Eng. Mohamed Abdulla Al Ali, CEO of Parkin, commented: "This agreement reflects Parkin's commitment to driving Dubai's smart city and sustainability agenda by creating intelligent, customer-focused parking solutions that also prioritise driver welfare. By partnering with Dubai Taxi Company, we are combining expertise in parking operations and mobility services to introduce integrated solutions that support the Emirate's growing demand for efficient, sustainable, and technology-enabled urban transport. Together, we aim to set new benchmarks for customer experience, operational efficiency, and smart mobility in Dubai."

Mansoor Rahma Alfalasi, CEO of Dubai Taxi Company, commented: "Dubai Taxi Company's partnership with Parkin marks another important milestone in DTC's journey toward smart, sustainable mobility. By integrating advanced parking and charging infrastructure with our expanding fleet operations, we are enhancing driver welfare, operational efficiency, and customer convenience. The collaboration reflects our shared commitment to supporting Dubai's vision for a connected, technology-driven transport ecosystem and reinforces DTC's role as a key enabler of the Emirate's sustainability and smart city goals."
